Ohio State Secures Commitment from Five-Star Recruit Chris Henry Jr.

Kayden Dixon-Wyatt, a four-star wide receiver for the 2026 class, has shifted his recruitment favor from the Oregon Ducks to the Ohio State Buckeyes following a recent visit. National recruiting director Adam Gorney reported that Ohio State is now the top contender for Dixon-Wyatt, indicating a significant change from Oregon's previous frontrunner status. Meanwhile, five-star receiver Chris Henry Jr. has also reaffirmed his commitment to Ohio State, shutting down his recruitment despite Oregon's efforts to recruit him. Henry's decision to cancel visits to Oregon and other schools solidifies Ohio State's strong position in the 2026 recruiting class. As a result, Oregon will now redirect its focus towards other prospects, including Dixon-Wyatt, as they adjust their recruiting strategy. The ongoing competition between these two powerhouse programs continues to shape the landscape of college football recruiting.
